BACON-BLUE CHEESE SANDWICHES
Onion jam, which is reason enough to try this sandwich, is simple to make (see the recipe for BLAAK Onion Jam at beekman1802.com, which also sells the jam by the jar). Although any blue cheese is delicious here, look for one that's sliceable or crumbly, not gooey. Stilton, Maytag, and Roaring Forties are good choices.

BLUE CHEESE, BACON AND PEAR BRUNCH SANDWICHES
Steps:
- Place the pear slices in a skillet, and pour in the apple juice. Cook over medium heat until the pears are soft, about 5 minutes. Drain pears and reserve; discard juice.
- Meanwhile, place the bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.
- Preheat the oven broiler.
- Place the focaccia bread slices on a baking sheet. Divide the pear slices evenly among the bread, and top evenly with the bacon, and then with the blue cheese.
- Broil the sandwiches in the preheated broiler until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for thick-cut bacon, sharp cheddar cheese, and soft, fresh bread.
- Cook the bacon until it is crispy. This will help it to hold its shape in the sandwich.
- Use a good quality bread that will hold up to the fillings. A sturdy white bread, wheat bread, or sourdough bread all work well.
- Spread the mayonnaise or butter on both sides of the bread. This will help to keep the sandwich from getting soggy.
- Be generous with the cheese. A good layer of cheese will help to hold the sandwich together and make it gooey and delicious.
- Add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include lettuce, tomato, onion, and avocado.
- Serve the sandwich immediately. This will prevent the bread from getting soggy.
